+#[[DP096]] - [[DP100]]: The original animation.
+#[[DP101]] - [[DP104]]: {{AP|Grotle}} replaces {{p|Turtwig}}.
+#[[DP105]] - [[DP106]]: {{TP|Dawn|Piloswine}} replaces {{p|Swinub}}.
+#[[DP107]] - [[DP118]]: {{TP|Dawn|Mamoswine}} replaces {{p|Piloswine}}.
+#[[DP119]] - [[DP132]]: {{AP|Staraptor}} replaces {{p|Staravia}}.
+#[[DP133]] - [[DP157]]: {{AP|Monferno}} replaces {{p|Chimchar}}.
+In addition to these variants:
+* In [[DP119]], the entire sequence is rendered for the upcoming HD format. Some elements are rearranged, while backgrounds are slightly moved or stretched, in order to fit a widescreen 16:9 ratio.
+** Despite all this, the anime would not switch to HD until two episodes later, which means the newly rearranged sequence is still cropped for the standard 4:3 ratio in the meantime. The reason the changes were made early is likely because they were made alongside the updating of Ash's Staravia to Staraptor.
+* From [[DP121]] onwards, the presentation actually switches to the high definition, 16:9 ratio.
+* From [[DP134]] onwards, the song is changed to its remixed version, ''High Touch! 2009''.
+===Gallery===
+Note that images are taken from the high definition format whenever possible.<br />Some variants were carried over from the standard definition format and slightly rearranged for the HD widescreen ratio. Those differences are minimal, and thus not showcased on this gallery.
+'''Boat scene''' <br />
+This scene features a camera effect that zooms out from {{an|Dawn}}'s eye, moves to an upper view while rotating in 360° around the boat, then ends with a zoom in to {{an|Brock}}'s eye. The following images are taken from one of the few frames in which all the characters are visible at the same time. Click on each picture for a larger view.

+'''Brock's scene''' <br />
+In the original shot, both Pikachu and Swinub move enthusiastically while waiting for Brock's food. Swinub does not move after evolving.

+'''Group shot''' <br />
+This shot pans from right to left, and features a slight depth effect: the Pokémon closer to the camera ({{TP|Dawn|Pachirisu}} and {{TP|Brock|Croagunk}}) move across faster than the others. For some reason, this effect is not present in the second variant. In addition, Sudowoodo is slightly redeawn in said variant, but switches back from the third variant onwards.

 ==Trivia==
 * This song is performed by [[Rica Matsumoto]] and [[Megumi Toyoguchi]], who are singing as the characters they voice (Satoshi and Hikari, respectively).
 * This is the only opening song of the {{series|Diamond & Pearl}} not sung by [[Fumie Akiyoshi]].
-* This is the first opening {{Gary}} has appeared in since [[Ready Go!]], the final [[original series]] opening, as well as the first that {{an|May}} and [[Max]] have appeared in since they left at the end of the {{series|Advanced Generation}}. Likewise, {{an|Misty}} and {{Tracey}} make yet another opening appearance since their departure.
+* This is the only opening featuring {{Gary}} since ''[[Ready Go!]]'', the final [[original series]] opening, as well as the only one featuring {{an|May}} and [[Max]] since their departure at the end of the {{series|Advanced Generation}}. It is also the last opening to feature {{an|Misty}}.
 * [[Saturn]]'s {{TP|Saturn|Toxicroak}} imitates its battle animation in {{v2|Platinum}} after being released.
 * In the instrumental version of the song, ''[[Aim to Be a Pokémon Master]]'' can be heard.

 * Due to this opening carrying over into the Pokémon anime's production into {{wp|high-definition television|HDTV}}, this is the first opening theme to air in an HDTV format.
 * ''High Touch!'' is a playable song in the Wii game ''{{wp|Taiko no Tatsujin Wii: Do Don to 2 Daime}}''.
-* This is the first Japanese opening to feature a duet, while the first one in English being a series later, in ''{{so|Black and White}}''. The first Pokémon opening in the world to feature a duet was the Korean opening ''{{so|Start of an Adventure}}'', used during the Kanto saga.
+* This is the first Japanese opening to feature a duet (the first one in English being ''{{so|Black and White}}'', and the first one in the world being ''{{so|Start of an Adventure}}'' in {{pmin|South Korea}}).
 ===Errors===
-* In [[DP105|the episode]] in which {{p|Swinub}} evolves, the opening animation replaces it with {{TP|Dawn|Mamoswine}} rather than {{p|Piloswine}}. In [[DP106|the following episode]], which was originally aired in a special with the episode where Piloswine evolves, it replaces Mamoswine but then returns as Mamoswine in the following episodes.
+* While opening updates usually occur in the episode ''following'' the one where a team change takes place, [[Dawn's Mamoswine|Dawn's Swinub]] was replaced in [[DP104]], the ''very same'' episode in which it evolved into {{p|Piloswine}}. Furthermore, it was shown as a {{p|Mamoswine}} in the opening rather than a Piloswine. This was corrected for all subsequent airings and releases.
-** This was corrected for subsequent airings and the DVD release.
